    Hey Guys,

    I was browsing your site and it is fun to see what you are up to. Tim good for you pursuing the cooking adventure! You’ll have to get out here in the cafe for a day or two to see how glamorous or not glamorous the restaurant biz is. We’ll try to get to NYC to visit you two soon.

    YOU SUCK! :( And I’m jealous. Congratulations to you both on the move. I sought you out because I had a funny experience last night. I was out with a friend of mine when I was being introduced to a tall guy named “Kelly”… he said he knew me. I scratched my head, literally. He told me that I used to date someone at Wavo… I said, “No I Didn’t…” Then I started to recall… oh wait a minute… TIM worked there. Sheesh, blast from the past. Vaguely recall Kelly.

    Anyway… I’ll be taking a couple of NY/east coast trips this year… I have a new nephew in PA and want to see him a lot. Would like to see you. Not sure if you have my digits, but they’ve stayed the same as they’ve always been. Get a hold of me, I don’t have a number or email to reach you.

    Be well.

    Hi guys…. we are in our last stop now, Singapore after spending a relaxing (although somewhat rainy) week in Bali. Loved your interpretation of our hike (and the movies) and may have to copy your description for my blog whenever I end up writing it. Hope you guys get some relaxation in soon – I am tired just reading about all your bus rides. Ugg. It was great meeting you both – we will look you up if we get to Seattle after your year is up. Please do the same if you make it to SF.
    We will keep checking in to see where you are, and live vicariously through you both now that our trip is over.
    Take care, Cathy and Scott
